Jennifer Reynolds is a Dublin based photography student in IADT, currently entering her final year.

Her work concerns existential questioning and is centred around the natural world, she exploring humans connection (or disconnection)  with nature and hopes to bring to light the ways in which we are separating ourselves farther and farther from nature. She hopes through her work that she will help us recognize that we are a part of nature, we are in harmony with it and we are not separate from it. Nor should we try to be.

On top of this, she explores her own existential questioning through her work, heavily inspired by the theories of philosopher Alan Watts as well as phenomenology, she uses an overlaying technique to create new dimensions inside our own world which appear as dreamlike scenes that thin the veil with the spirit world.

Her photographs also play with our interpretations of time, she works through an archive as well as creating new work, blending images from different time periods, questioning the effects that time really has and the ability that a camera has to pause scenes in time.

Biography

I have been photographing nature since I was 14, in 2020 I began my bachelors degree of Fine Art and in 2022 I transferred my course to photography, giving me a rounded experience of photography and art. My professional career began this year in 2023, beginning with a collaborative exhibition with myself and 5 friends that was held in the DIVA Gallery in Dublin.

 

 Since then, I have participated in 7 group exhibitions and have 3 more upcoming group shows in Barcelona and New York. In May 2023 I completed a residency with World of Co which helped my career tremendously, I came out of it with my favourite project to date as well as a photobook.

 

I have just been accepted into Can Serrats residency program in Barcelona for summer 2024 and I have my first Solo Show coming up in August. My images have also been published in the New Word Order magazine ( issue 2 )and F stop Magazine ( issue 116)
